Sugar Tests.

We clip the following from the Commercial
Bulletin of July 8. The fact that the small.
est fraction of degree subjects the importer
to full additional cents per 100 duty
makes the unjust discrimination against
New England reiners very severe and should
not exist:
The conference Of the custom house Off
GERS in charge of the polariscope ut the diff
ferent ports bids fair to be one of the most
important results attained by the Boston
Movement Against Undervaluations. Some
uniform system of pOlarisc0pic tests of su-
gar Is absolutely necessary If Boston is TO
retain her refneries, for under the present
method of leyying duties the New York re-
finers are saving from ten to twenty thous-
and dollars a day, which they would be
obliged to pay the government if the Boston
officer who uses the polariscope were sta
toned in New York;
The polariscopc test is so delicate mat
ter that the same sample of sugar twice test
ed usually yields results varying from two to
four teuths of degree. The New York ex-
aminer consequently calls tests of 961o,
$500, 96.3o an even $50, while the Boston ex-
aminer counts the smallest fractions. These
small fractions make difference Of thous-
ands of dollars on large invoices of raw SUI
gar the Boston examiner leaning invariably
on the side of severity, the New York exam
liner on on the side of leniency. An even du-
ty of so many cents pound on all kinds of
sugar would be infinitely preferable to the
present system, as it would ensure fairness
and uniformity. However, as the present
method must be continued until Congress
changes the law conference which may be
expected to result in an attempt at uniform
methods of testing is at least step in adj
vance

quently from public property. The tele-
graphic cipher is pretty near as old as the
telegraph itself. 1t did not take long for
some inventive genius to devise scheme for
saving money and talking apparent riddles
by telegraph. WHAT became the business

Men would telegraph 100 words in single
message got to sending three or four words
by wire that meant as much as the hundred
word message, AT the present time every
big business house in the country has tele-
graphic cipher Many firms have private ci-
pliers of their own, and any man who
can invent an original cipher covering the
ordinary terms of the commercial vocabula-
ry can readily sell it for good round sum.

made off him, the Portlands being retired in
regular order. In the fifth inning he was

and in the eighth inning was forced to re
tire and was succeeded by Burns. The
Portlands kicked vigorously and declared
that they would protest the game, although
the umpire allowed Small to be replaced by
Quinn in the first inning, when the former
was struck by thrown ball. The injury
was not serious enough to disable him, as he
himself declared Lovely, of the late Sa-
